>I want to access a VFP 6.0 .DBF file situated on an FTP site. This site is accessible in r/w/u mode since I have a username and password. How do I open (USE) this file in VFP 6.0. In the DEERFIELD utilities I have found a program to map an FTP site to a drivename (network drive), but this is difficult to call from within VFP.
>Thanks for any answer!
